Matthew 5:9-48

5:9

Blessed
<3107>

[are] the peacemakers
<1518>_:

for
<3754>

they
<846>

shall be called
<2564> (5701)

the children
<5207>

of God
<2316>_.

5:10

Blessed
<3107>

[are] they which are persecuted
<1377> (5772)

for
<1752>

righteousness' sake
<1343>_:

for
<3754>

theirs
<846>

is
<2076> (5748)

the kingdom
<932>

of heaven
<3772>_.

5:11

Blessed
<3107>

are ye
<2075> (5748)_,

when
<3752>

[men] shall revile
<3679> (5661)

you
<5209>_,

and
<2532>

persecute
<1377> (5661)

[you], and
<2532>

shall say
<2036> (5632)

all manner
<3956>

of evil
<4190> <4487>

against
<2596>

you
<5216>

falsely
<5574> (5730)_,

for my sake
<1752> <1700>_.

{falsely: Gr. lying}

5:12

Rejoice
<5463> (5720)_,

and
<2532>

be exceeding glad
<21> (5737)_:

for
<3754>

great
<4183>

[is] your
<5216>

reward
<3408>

in
<1722>

heaven
<3772>_:

for
<1063>

so
<3779>

persecuted they
<1377> (5656)

the prophets
<4396>

which
<3588>

were before
<4253>

you
<5216>_.

5:13

Ye
<5210>

are
<2075> (5748)

the salt
<217>

of the earth
<1093>_:

but
<1161>

if
<1437>

the salt
<217>

have lost his savour
<3471> (5686)_,

wherewith
<1722> <5101>

shall it be salted
<233> (5701)_?

it is thenceforth
<2089>

good
<2480> (5719)

for
<1519>

nothing
<3762>_,

but
<1508>

to be cast
<906> (5683)

out
<1854>_,

and
<2532>

to be trodden under foot
<2662> (5745)

of
<5259>

men
<444>_.

5:14

Ye
<5210>

are
<2075> (5748)

the light
<5457>

of the world
<2889>_.

A city
<4172>

that is set
<2749> (5740)

on
<1883>

an hill
<3735>

cannot
<3756> <1410> (5736)

be hid
<2928> (5650)_.

5:15

Neither
<3761>

do men light
<2545> (5719)

a candle
<3088>_,

and
<2532>

put
<5087> (5719)

it
<846>

under
<5259>

a bushel
<3426>_,

but
<235>

on
<1909>

a candlestick
<3087>_;

and
<2532>

it giveth light
<2989> (5719)

unto all
<3956>

that are in
<1722>

the house
<3614>_.

{a bushel: the word in the original signifieth a measure containing about a pint less than a peck}

5:16

Let your
<5216>

light
<5457>

so
<3779>

shine
<2989> (5657)

before
<1715>

men
<444>_,

that
<3704>

they may see
<1492> (5632)

your
<5216>

good
<2570>

works
<2041>_,

and
<2532>

glorify
<1392> (5661)

your
<5216>

Father
<3962>

which
<3588>

is in
<1722>

heaven
<3772>_.

5:17

Think
<3543> (5661)

not
<3361>

that
<3754>

I am come
<2064> (5627)

to destroy
<2647> (5658)

the law
<3551>_,

or
<2228>

the prophets
<4396>_:

I am
<2064> (0)

not
<3756>

come
<2064> (5627)

to destroy
<2647> (5658)_,

but
<235>

to fulfil
<4137> (5658)_.

5:18

For
<1063>

verily
<281>

I say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

Till
<2193> <302>

heaven
<3772>

and
<2532>

earth
<1093>

pass
<3928> (5632)_,

one
<1520>

jot
<2503>

or
<2228>

one
<3391>

tittle
<2762>

shall in no wise
<3364>

pass
<3928> (5632)

from
<575>

the law
<3551>_,

till
<2193> <302>

all
<3956>

be fulfilled
<1096> (5638)_.

5:19

Whosoever
<3739> <1437>

therefore
<3767>

shall break
<3089> (5661)

one
<3391>

of these
<5130>

least
<1646>

commandments
<1785>_,

and
<2532>

shall teach
<1321> (5661)

men
<444>

so
<3779>_,

he shall be called
<2564> (5701)

the least
<1646>

in
<1722>

the kingdom
<932>

of heaven
<3772>_:

but
<1161>

whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall do
<4160> (5661)

and
<2532>

teach
<1321> (5661)

[them], the same
<3778>

shall be called
<2564> (5701)

great
<3173>

in
<1722>

the kingdom
<932>

of heaven
<3772>_.

5:20

For
<1063>

I say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

That
<3754>

except
<3362>

your
<5216>

righteousness
<1343>

shall exceed
<4052> (5661) <4119>

[the righteousness] of the scribes
<1122>

and
<2532>

Pharisees
<5330>_,

ye shall in no case
<3364>

enter
<1525> (5632)

into
<1519>

the kingdom
<932>

of heaven
<3772>_.

5:21

Ye have heard
<191> (5656)

that
<3754>

it was said
<4483> (5681)

by them of old time
<744>_,

Thou shalt
<5407> (0)

not
<3756>

kill
<5407> (5692)_;

and
<1161>

whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall kill
<5407> (5661)

shall be
<2071> (5704)

in danger
<1777>

of the judgment
<2920>_:

{by: or, to}

5:22

But
<1161>

I
<1473>

say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

That
<3754>

whosoever
<3956>

is angry
<3710> (5746)

with his
<846>

brother
<80>

without a cause
<1500>

shall be
<2071> (5704)

in danger
<1777>

of the judgment
<2920>_:

and
<1161>

whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall say
<2036> (5632)

to his
<846>

brother
<80>_,

Raca
<4469>_,

shall be
<2071> (5704)

in danger
<1777>

of the council
<4892>_:

but
<1161>

whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall say
<2036> (5632)_,

Thou fool
<3474>_,

shall be
<2071> (5704)

in danger
<1777>

of
<1519>

hell
<1067>

fire
<4442>_.

{Raca: that is, Vain fellow}

5:23

Therefore
<3767>

if
<1437>

thou bring
<4374> (5725)

thy
<4675>

gift
<1435>

to
<1909>

the altar
<2379>_,

and there
<2546>

rememberest
<3415> (5686)

that
<3754>

thy
<4675>

brother
<80>

hath
<2192> (5719)

ought
<5100>

against
<2596>

thee
<4675>_;

5:24

Leave
<863> (5628)

there
<1563>

thy
<4675>

gift
<1435>

before
<1715>

the altar
<2379>_,

and
<2532>

go thy way
<5217> (5720)_;

first
<4412>

be reconciled
<1259> (5649)

to thy
<4675>

brother
<80>_,

and
<2532>

then
<5119>

come
<2064> (5631)

and offer
<4374> (5720)

thy
<4675>

gift
<1435>_.

5:25

Agree
<2468> (5749) <2132> (5723)

with thine
<4675>

adversary
<476>

quickly
<5035>_,

whiles
<2193> <3755>

thou art
<1488> (5748)

in
<1722>

the way
<3598>

with
<3326>

him
<846>_;

lest at any time
<3379>

the adversary
<476>

deliver
<3860> (5632)

thee
<4571>

to the judge
<2923>_,

and
<2532>

the judge
<2923>

deliver
<3860> (5632)

thee
<4571>

to the officer
<5257>_,

and
<2532>

thou be cast
<906> (5701)

into
<1519>

prison
<5438>_.

5:26

Verily
<281>

I say
<3004> (5719)

unto thee
<4671>_,

Thou shalt
<1831> (0)

by no means
<3364>

come
<1831> (5632)

out thence
<1564>_,

till
<2193> <302>

thou hast paid
<591> (5632)

the uttermost
<2078>

farthing
<2835>_.

5:27

Ye have heard
<191> (5656)

that
<3754>

it was said
<4483> (5681)

by them of old time
<744>_,

Thou shalt
<3431> (0)

not
<3756>

commit adultery
<3431> (5692)_:

5:28

But
<1161>

I
<1473>

say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

That
<3754>

whosoever
<3956>

looketh
<991> (5723)

on a woman
<1135>

to
<4314>

lust after
<1937> (5658)

her
<846>

hath committed adultery
<3431> (5656)

with her
<846>

already
<2235>

in
<1722>

his
<846>

heart
<2588>_.

5:29

And
<1161>

if
<1487>

thy
<4675>

right
<1188>

eye
<3788>

offend
<4624> (5719)

thee
<4571>_,

pluck
<1807> (0)

it
<846>

out
<1807> (5628)_,

and
<2532>

cast
<906> (5628)

[it] from
<575>

thee
<4675>_:

for
<1063>

it is profitable
<4851> (5719)

for thee
<4671>

that
<2443>

one
<1520>

of thy
<4675>

members
<3196>

should perish
<622> (5643)_,

and
<2532>

not
<3361>

[that] thy
<4675>

whole
<3650>

body
<4983>

should be cast
<906> (5686)

into
<1519>

hell
<1067>_.

{offend...: or, do cause thee to offend}

5:30

And
<2532>

if
<1487>

thy
<4675>

right
<1188>

hand
<5495>

offend
<4624> (5719)

thee
<4571>_,

cut
<1581> (0)

it
<846>

off
<1581> (5657)_,

and
<2532>

cast
<906> (5628)

[it] from
<575>

thee
<4675>_:

for
<1063>

it is profitable
<4851> (5719)

for thee
<4671>

that
<2443>

one
<1520>

of thy
<4675>

members
<3196>

should perish
<622> (5643)_,

and
<2532>

not
<3361>

[that] thy
<4675>

whole
<3650>

body
<4983>

should be cast
<906> (5686)

into
<1519>

hell
<1067>_.

5:31

<1161>@ It hath been said
<4483> (5681) <3754>_,

Whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall put away
<630> (5661)

his
<846>

wife
<1135>_,

let him give
<1325> (5628)

her
<846>

a writing of divorcement
<647>_:

5:32

But
<1161>

I
<1473>

say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

That
<3754>

whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall put away
<630> (5661)

his
<846>

wife
<1135>_,

saving
<3924>

for the cause
<3056>

of fornication
<4202>_,

causeth
<4160> (5719)

her
<846>

to commit adultery
<3429> (5738)_:

and
<2532>

whosoever
<3739> <1437>

shall marry
<1060> (5661)

her that is divorced
<630> (5772)

committeth adultery
<3429> (5736)_.

5:33

Again
<3825>_,

ye have heard
<191> (5656)

that
<3754>

it hath been said
<4483> (5681)

by them of old time
<744>_,

Thou shalt
<1964> (0)

not
<3756>

forswear thyself
<1964> (5692)_,

but
<1161>

shalt perform
<591> (5692)

unto the Lord
<2962>

thine
<4675>

oaths
<3727>_:

5:34

But
<1161>

I
<1473>

say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

Swear
<3660> (5658)

not
<3361>

at all
<3654>_;

neither
<3383>

by
<1722>

heaven
<3772>_;

for
<3754>

it is
<2076> (5748)

God's
<2316>

throne
<2362>_:

5:35

Nor
<3383>

by
<1722>

the earth
<1093>_;

for
<3754>

it is
<2076> (5748)

his
<846>

footstool
<4228> <5286>_:

neither
<3383>

by
<1519>

Jerusalem
<2414>_;

for
<3754>

it is
<2076> (5748)

the city
<4172>

of the great
<3173>

King
<935>_.

5:36

Neither
<3383>

shalt thou swear
<3660> (5661)

by
<1722>

thy
<4675>

head
<2776>_,

because
<3754>

thou canst
<1410> (5736)

not
<3756>

make
<4160> (5658)

one
<3391>

hair
<2359>

white
<3022>

or
<2228>

black
<3189>_.

5:37

But
<1161>

let
<2077> (0)

your
<5216>

communication
<3056>

be
<2077> (5749)_,

Yea
<3483>_,

yea
<3483>_;

Nay
<3756>_,

nay
<3756>_:

for
<1161>

whatsoever is more
<4053>

than these
<5130>

cometh
<2076> (5748)

of
<1537>

evil
<4190>_.

5:38

Ye have heard
<191> (5656)

that
<3754>

it hath been said
<4483> (5681)_,

An eye
<3788>

for
<473>

an eye
<3788>_,

and
<2532>

a tooth
<3599>

for
<473>

a tooth
<3599>_:

5:39

But
<1161>

I
<1473>

say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

That ye resist
<436> (5629)

not
<3361>

evil
<4190>_:

but
<235>

whosoever
<3748>

shall smite
<4474> (5692)

thee
<4571>

on
<1909>

thy
<4675>

right
<1188>

cheek
<4600>_,

turn
<4762> (5657)

to him
<846>

the other
<243>

also
<2532>_.

5:40

And
<2532>

if any man will
<2309> (5723)

sue
<2919> (0)

thee
<4671>

at the law
<2919> (5683)_,

and
<2532>

take away
<2983> (5629)

thy
<4675>

coat
<5509>_,

let
<863> (0)

him
<846>

have
<863> (5628)

[thy] cloke
<2440>

also
<2532>_.

5:41

And
<2532>

whosoever
<3748>

shall compel
<29> (0)

thee
<4571>

to go
<29> (5692)

a
<1520>

mile
<3400>_,

go
<5217> (5720)

with
<3326>

him
<846>

twain
<1417>_.

5:42

Give
<1325> (5720)

to him that asketh
<154> (5723)

thee
<4571>_,

and
<2532>

from him that would
<2309> (5723)

borrow
<1155> (5670)

of
<575>

thee
<4675>

turn
<654> (0)

not
<3361>

thou away
<654> (5652)_.

5:43

Ye have heard
<191> (5656)

that
<3754>

it hath been said
<4483> (5681)_,

Thou shalt love
<25> (5692)

thy
<4675>

neighbour
<4139>_,

and
<2532>

hate
<3404> (5692)

thine
<4675>

enemy
<2190>_.

5:44

But
<1161>

I
<1473>

say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_,

Love
<25> (5720)

your
<5216>

enemies
<2190>_,

bless
<2127> (5720)

them that curse
<2672> (5740)

you
<5209>_,

do
<4160> (5720)

good
<2573>

to them that hate
<3404> (5723)

you
<5209>_,

and
<2532>

pray
<4336> (5737)

for
<5228>

them which
<3588>

despitefully use
<1908> (5723)

you

<1377> (5723)

you

5:45

That
<3704>

ye may be
<1096> (5638)

the children

of your

Father
<3962>

which

the just

5:46

For

if

ye love

them which

love

the publicans

the same

5:47

And

if

therefore
